SUMMARY:THANKSGIVING SEASON -- WILD FOOD COOKING WORKSHOP -- INCLUDING ACORN PROCESSING
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, November 21\, 10 a.m. \nWILD FOOD COOKING WORKSHOP \nJoin us as we do a short walk to forage wild foods that are in season\, and learn how to recognize what is available now. \nWe’ll then gather and prepare  the various wild foods\, along with some that we have brought\, including ACORNS.  You will work together to create a salad\, a soup\, an egg dish\, acorn pancakes\, tea\, and some sort of desert items.  We’ll have mushrooms if we find any. \nLearn how to eat the older nopales\nIt’s worth noting that when the first peoples of Hahamongna lived here\, they relied on the plant and animal life for their sustenance. You will just be getting a small taste of what that would have been like.  And it is worth noting that the majority of the wild foods that are available today are mostly European invasive plants\,  plants that the first peoples would not have had. \n \nBring your notebook and camera\, and bring your water and bowl.  This is not a spectator sport\, so be prepared to process greens\, make the fire\, and cook. \n$65 ($45 for seniors and students)

SUMMARY:FORAGING BY THE SEASON:  WINTER
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, December 19\, 10 a.m. \nFORAGING BY THE SEASON:  WINTER \n  \n \n‘ \n  \nWINTER FORAGING in the West:  What are the seasonal greens\, nuts\, seeds\, berries\, roots\, etc. that are available now? \nThis series of Seasonal Foraging occurs once per season\, where you can learn to see nature through the seasons\, from a forager’s perspective.  The essence of this class is to develop seasonal knowledge and observational skills: How to look\, where to look\, what to look for.  Plus\, we will also focus on responsible and sustainable gathering methods\, including collection of seeds and cuttings so you can grow plants in your own backyard.  See web site for details. \nThe essence of this class is to develop seasonal knowledge and observational skills: How to look\, where to look\, what to look for.  Plus\, we will also focus on responsible and sustainable gathering methods\, including collection of seeds and cuttings so you can grow plants in your own backyard. \n \nYou’ll learn how to identify and collect foods\, medicines\, soaps\, fire-materials\, and other useful parts of plants.  You’ll learn to think like foragers of the past\, who had to have an intimate knowledge of the seasons\, and foresight for the future.  (For example\, sometimes you do NO foraging in an area if the plant or seed is not abundant.) \nJoin us each quarter for an insightful walk into a wild area\, with a focus on interpreting what’s available that season.  Each session will include demonstrations\, hands-on practice\, and sampling of the seasonal foods\, such as salad\, soup\, biscuit\, or tea.  Each session includes a list of what is normally available in that season. \n  \nWINTER   \nThis is the time when we begin to  get our rains\, and we can begin to see the hillsides and valleys greening-up.  Learn to identify young seedlings and sprouts\, and which are already edible.  Learn to identify those locations where you can come back to later. Some fruits that occur in early spring\, and we’ll discover those.  This would also be the time to collect cuttings for sprouting\, so you can grow these plants at your own home.   Mushrooms are beginning now. \nLOCATION:  We will explore a foothill canyon in the Angeles National Forest. Details sent upon registration. \n  \n
